A £27,500 watch was stolen from a pensioner in broad daylight.
The unique 18ct gold Rolex watch, with 79 diamonds around its clock face, was snatched yesterday from the wrist of a 73-year-old widower as he was out shopping in Carshalton.
The watch was a gift from the man’s two daughters for his 60th birthday.
It was stolen when the man was approached from behind by a thief.
He had just left his home in Bramblewood Close.
Police said there was no description of the suspect.
